Ben Howard - What the Moon Does

Oh, amoret, with your chain
Come to me, make me sane
Feed the dog, walk a mile
Speak it simple, make me smile
Tell me a thought, tell me beautiful things
Like how the river bends in a wild wood creek

Am I making history, am I working out?
Only what the moon does to the devout

And I may be floating through memories
We may be the broken wings on a butterfly
But didn't we dream big once or twice?
And that's just fine

Oh, amoret, with your chain
Come to me, make me sane
Feed the dog, walk a mile
Most things now make me smile
Tell me a thought, tell me beautiful things
Like how the river bends in a wild wood creek

And I may be floating through memories
We may be the broken wings on a butterfly
Didn't we dream big once or twice?

Through a ribbon in the night
Broke a candle, bathed in light
While all around us real life
Flashed at the window
Oh
Oh

You didn't, you didn't have to tell me
I knew it always
You didn't, you didn't have to tell me
I knew it always

Oh, amoret with your chain
Come to me, make me sane
Feed the dog, walk a mile
Most things now make me smile

Am I making history?
Am I working out?
Only what the moon does
To the devout
